Grumbling Among Workingmen.
There is a great deal of grumbline among
workingmen in regard to the parade. 1t has
been advertised that the demonstration to
be solely that of labor societies, and they can
not understand how the grand marshal and the
committee acting with him have selected staff
Of men who are not representative of organized
workingmen. A list of the officers who are to
control the parade shows that they mostly
selected from lawyers and politicians, and that
the proportion of these to mechanics
and laborers who are to have official distinction
out of the affair is about ten to Some of
the workingmen say that this is an intrusion
and should be resented by refusal of the
trades-urions and assemblies to turn out
Individually the matter has gone SO far that
many members state that they will not be in
line with their organizations. 1t said by
workingman Yesterday that he knew of only
man in his part of the city who intended to
join the parade. 1.-THE difficulty" he con-
tinued, ''could not be if they had
rejected Sim Coy for grand marshal Go not

asked.

see how the staff officers can be changed. but
think from what personally know and what
has been told me, that the workingmens pro-
